FAQs

How do I clean the snow suit?

Machine wash in cold water (30°C) with a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners.

Can I tumble dry the snow suit?

Yes, tumble dry on low heat. Avoid high heat as it can damage the waterproof coating.

What kind of detergent should I use?

Use a mild detergent. Avoid detergents with bleach or fabric softeners, as they can degrade the waterproof coating.

How do I re-apply DWR?

Follow the instructions on the DWR product you purchase. Usually, this involves washing the suit, then applying the DWR spray or wash-in treatment and heat setting it.

What should I do if the zipper gets stuck?

Try gently wiggling the zipper. If it's still stuck, clean the zipper with a damp cloth and apply a zipper lubricant.

What is the warranty on the snow suit?

Troubleshooting

Water is penetrating the suit.

Check if the DWR treatment has worn off. Re-apply DWR according to the manufacturer's instructions. Also, check for any damage or tears in the fabric and repair them.

The suit feels too warm.

Adjust the layering underneath the suit. Use a lighter base layer and mid-layer or remove layers altogether on milder days. Ensure breathability by not over-layering.

Zippers are sticking.

Clean the zippers with a damp cloth to remove any snow or debris. Apply zipper lubricant to improve smooth operation.

The hood doesn't stay up.

Adjust the hood's drawcord or the fit as needed. Ensure the hood is properly attached to the suit, if detachable.
